< Research on cellular polarization and orientation in tooth organogenesis >
According to developmental program in embryonic stage, the organ develops with specific morphogenesis by cooperated movement among epithelial and cells mesenchymal cells. This morphogenesis would be important for the organogenesis to arrange the functional cells into proper position with polarity. We'd like to elucidate this mechanism associated with cellular polarization and orientation in the development of tooth, which is model of organogenesis.
